    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I can't see Labour getting enough support to form a minority government at present. Its best course of action is to bring the blairites back into the fold. Without that, they'll be cursed in the same way as the tories are.

    Very disappointing start....

    most of us are no better than you at guessing Gaz. Scott is going to experiment a bit, we'll find out what did it soon enough.

    Your Stealth is derestricted, you put the Stealth through a lot more stress and strain.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    beside the well publicised prejudices, I see the DUP as representing one side of the conflict in NI, therefore unsuitable to be chosen as a partner for the conservatives in the same way that SF is unsuitable for a Labour led coalition.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    not quite yet. We have to wait for the deal with the EU to be made then people will come to their senses. In the mean time, Mr Corbyn's station has hugely improved but Labour is still in no shape to govern the country.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The DUP is clearly an unsuitable partner for a government in any shape or form. there is no way a hung parliament can deliver a strong and stable government. I hope the tories are going to sort out who will lead them within a year, then a new election will be called. Regarding brexit, any...

    still not to sure what to make of bosch ebike system

    that's a common impression when a fit person rides a modern e-bike. They are commonly fitted with 17A controllers, giving about 550W-600W maximum assistance.

    it looks good enough to sell in shops.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I wouldn't consider the number of posts as an indicator, the number of posters is. I consider myself a centrist.

    it looks better with the new fork. Darren, how heavy is the whole bike now?

    Very disappointing start....

    the difficulty is that we can't feel what Scott feels from the pedals, not from his saddle. The vibrations are not obvious enough. Scott described it as something that feels graunchy in the pedals. Like a bad ball bearing. That's why his first suspicion was on the bottom bracket, then when he...

    the OP is not new to e-biking, he probably knows that already. If he could do something simple like changing the cassette or his 18T front ring to get more out of the Bosch bike, he'll do it. As I said before, if he could pedal harder or spin faster on hills, or a software update with eMTB...

    he's already got a Tonsheng / Mxus CD conversion before buying his Bosch. He's after a greater assist ratio to exploit the potential of his Active Line motor. He only gets about 350W out of a possible 500W output of the motor because he can't spin the cranks at 90rpm. That's OK on flat road...

    Trex has gone for good, Artstu. His account is closed.

    Artstu, if you have bothered checking the info given by the OP in the opening post, you'd have seen that he is only after a higher assist ratio. A lot of people can't go higher than 70 RPM for various health reasons like prostate issue or simply aging. Check 11mph against the 26T - you will find...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am not disappointed. TM is severely weakened. There is no way the tories are going to let her lead them into the next GE. In the meantime, her plan of clear and hard brexit is clearly rejected by the result of the election. At least the City hopes so. The proof? The Pound recovers a fair bit...

    at his current level of fitness, he needs an assist ratio of x 4.5 to get the best out of his bike without having to pedal faster or harder.
